ForeWord Reviews is a print magazine and online review service for readers, booksellers, book buyers, publishing insiders, and librarians.

ForeWord Reviews is published six times a year beginning with a January/February issue. We normally print 8,000 copies, with a few issues seeing 10,000+ when extra distribution is needed.

Our magazine and review services affect the choices of booksellers and librarians across the country who tell millions what to read. Our typical print publication reaches an audience of 20,000; our Website receives a monthly average of 150,000 unique visitors.

ForeWord Reviews employs professional freelance reviewers from all over the United States and Canada. Most of them have “day” jobs at universities or public libraries. Many of them also review for our peer journals, Kirkus, Booklist, Publishers Weekly, and Library Journal.
